The worry should not be on the gender but on experience levels. Every airline on the planet is currently desperate for pilots and they are looking at every demographic to hire. A lot are lowering their requirements to achieve that. Outside of the USA, the terms and conditions of being a pilot are not attractive, the lifestyle is not great and the treatment of pilots in general has been appalling. As a passenger though, there is no way to know the experience levels of your pilots and you won't know it from their gender. It doesn't matter if the captain is the best pilot in the world - if their first officer is useless, it will negatively impact the performance as a crew as a whole. 

Personally I don't like the "look at me" social media posts - I think it cheapens the profession.

We got this foreigner in our housing estate who buys up the older houses and renovates them, then selling them off. 

He's there 7 days a week, first thing he does is front fence with a tarpaulin extension to hide him from IO I'd say. 

Looks like hard work to me.

He organises the Thai contractors, I often see him working hard. 

 

Not sure where he lives, I've had a conversation with him asking where he lives, he says he's been living in our village for 20 years in the next row of houses. I've been living there for 20 years, never seen him before. 🤔

 

Not me unfortunately. This idea sounds a lot smarter than what I’ve undertaken 😂

a small construction company. It's a steep and expensive learning curve.

I think thai society will deal with this issue quickly.The teacher will be looking behind his back for a long time with what has happened

This has not been my experience. He will be sent to jail and let out on good behaviour or some other BS reason and he will do it or worse again.

The father filed a report to the police and the suspect was arrested but he requested bail during the court process which was later granted. However, the suspect then escaped and went into hiding in Phuket for five years before he was arrested.

The suspect remains in custody as of press time.

 

Maybe keep him in custody this time and makes sure he ends up behind bars... hopefully with some shirt-lifters who like rapists.

The system should never allow someone accused of this to be granted bail and these cases should be expedited.

I was referring to the statement that the girl was murdered as an error, not that you plan to adopt her.  Obviously she cannot have been murdered if you plan to adopt her.

We have been planning for a while, since she lost the rest of her family about a year ago. One to Covid and one to cancer. It was a medium to long term plan. She was staying with the a good family until we could adopt her. We obviously can't now - she been murdered. Its just the timeline you seem to have incorrect

I assume that the "murdered" part was an error, since you plan to adopt the girl?

 

In any case one can only hope the hearing on the 10th will be just a formality. Can your GF not attend?

It is not an error. It was our intention to do so once we were able to, perhaps the end of the year. My girlfriend will be attending with the family that was looking after her in the interim. I'm not asking for any help other than of anyone is in the area and doesn't mind sitting in as a show of support towards her case. from what I've read in other threads, I don't want this to get looked over because it only looks like just another case that no one cares about.

we're all bombarded with information which no one but you is responsible for blocking out. 

 

regarding this thread, it was started impulsively. 

 

the main message was that several flight paths are odd, maybe suspicious ... but let's leave it at that and not infer anything any further. 

 

that's about as much time and energy i want to put into this topic. 

 

 

 

suspicious. right. ????It only seems suspicious to people who believe the ridiculous

no need for features. just wait until someone expresses an opinion you don't like. 

feelings are mutual. 

i'm blocking you too. 

 

Yes genius, that's the point of the feature. I won't have too wait to read your incorrect opinions.

There were two guys(locals) in the Philippines who were accused of something similar maybe 10 years ago. The police caught them very quickly. They were dead before they made it to the police station.

 

Local news coverage stated the above. There was no uproar about it. 

There must be evidence as there is in this case. Nothing will change my mind on their quick execution. As painful as possible if able. 
 

those saying he won’t be able to look after her and the child if he’s dead are deluded into thinking he will. Even if he did, he will do the same over and over again. He needs to become one with his “forever box” post-haste.

Kill him

The workers United shall never be defeated. What if she had 10 years as an employee, few sick days, well regarded, filled shifts when required. Then makes a fairly tame joke. Possibly had a bad day. Give her a training session on polite behaviour and put her back in the frey of what likely often is a pretty painful job to have.

I agree with your sentiments. But Cx do not care about any of that. She was a BC, so a new joiner. On the salary they are on - I doubt she cares.
 

Plus I also think it was a set up. Who records every interaction with everyone they come into contact with?

He will repeat offend. The severity will only increase. It is a disease that can not be cured. He should be put to death. 

It was said and meant in a playful way. But of course they have no sense of humour. 

Looks like a super strong base. Very thick ????

For the price I'm guessing it's not too bad - provided the structure stays in place. Some of the pictures of the concrete look a bit worrying to me, but that doesn't mean it's not sound. I dread to mention it due to the negativity it will probably raise, but there are some "knockdown" houses that some companies are building that seem very good. Albeit it probably more expensive than this. Will be interesting to see what your interior will look like. 

I have been telling my bank and I'm going to write to VISA right now that I should have the option to have every single credit card transaction approved by sending me an OTP by sms (or app of their choice or even their banking app) to my phone. Whether it's for B5 or B5,000,000. 

I know a lawyer who lost her husband recently in a car accident a few days ago (my gf's brother wife was also in the car and is still in a coma), and this same woman who just lost her husband has now just lost her son in this horror.

You young whipper snappers. '97? you need to go back to '87 when interest rates were over 15% or higher depending on where you were.

4 Relatives of my girlfriend and 2 friends would beg to differ. But they didn't get vaccines fast enough, so they can't, because they're dead.

No. The runways are normally called 21 Right or 21 Left......same as radar headings are given as "right heading" or "left heading".

Yes, the runways are marked with the 21R or 21L on the threshold, but by the time you see that at 130 knots you're on it.

As others have pointed out, there are plenty of "measures" to ensure that you are on the correct runway..... the ATIS will mostly nominate the landing runway ( but in the case od DMK this can be changed to suit traffic etc), also the Arrival clearance or STAR will nominate the runway as will the Approach Controller and finally the Tower controller.

Even on a Visual Approach it is normal procedure (SOP) to input and identify the ILS approach for that runway as a secondary cross check.

Finally, the landing clearance issued by the tower controller (SHOULD) will include the runway identifier......"Runway 21 Left, cleared to land"

Everything Orchidfan posted is correct. I would add that should an incorrect rwy be put into the Flight management computer and the crew don't pick it up, then ATC should also be monitoring and alert them to incorrect tracking. Ultimately though - it is the pilots responsibility.

Does this mean I can give 1 star restaurant reviews and not be sued?

it’s my understanding that going to jail would not take away his obligation to pay - is that right?
